Heart Rate Variability (HRV) analysis is a non-invasive tool for assessing the autonomic nervous system and for arrhythmia detection and classification. This paper presents a Random Forest classifier based diagnostic system for detecting cardiac arrhythmias using ECG data. The authors use features extracted from ECG signals using HRV analysis and DWT for classification. The experimental results indicate that a prediction accuracy of more than 98% can be obtained using the proposed method. This system can be further improved and fine-tuned for practical applications.

In this study, genetic algorithm method was used to select the most suitable set of features for classification of arrhythmia types of heart beats. Normal, right branch block, left branch block and pace rhythm samples of electrocardiography (ECG) signals which obtained from the MIT-BIH cardiac arrhythmia database were used in the classification. Mean, standard deviation, energy and entropy of discrete wavelet transform (DWT) coefficients were proposed as the features for the classification. By using the proposed DWT method, 16 features which have high classification accuracy were obtained among the 208 feature sets constructed from 13 different wavelet types by applying the genetic algorithm method. It was observed that the features that increase accuracy can be detected by the genetic algorithm and the feature set obtained from the coefficients of the different types of wavelets selected at different levels show higher performance than the coefficients obtained from the standard individual wavelet in the ECG arrhythmia classification.

Reliable and computationally efficient means of classifying electrocardiogram (ECG) signals has been the subject of considerable research effort in recent years. This paper explores the potential applications of a talented, versatile computation model called the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) in the field of ECG signal classification. Two types of ANNs: Multi-Layered Feed Forward Network (MLFFN) and Probabilistic Neural Networks (PNN) are used to classify seven types of ECG beats. It includes six types of arrhythmia data and normal data. Here, parametric modeling strategies are used in conjunction with ANN classifiers to discriminate ECG signals. Instead of giving the ECG data as such, parameters such as fourth order Auto Regressive model coefficients and Spectral Entropy of the signals has been selected. On testing with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology-Beth Israel Hospital (MIT/BIH) arrhythmia database, it has been observed that PNN has better performance than conventionally used MLFFN in ECG arrhythmia classification. MLFFN with Back Propagation Algorithm gives a classification accuracy of 97.54% and PNN gives 98.96%. The classification by PNN also has an advantage that the computation time for classification is lower than that of MLFFN.

AbstractHeart rate variability (HRV) utilizes the electrocardiogram (ECG) and has been widely studied as a non-invasive indicator of cardiac autonomic activity. Pulse rate variability (PRV) utilizes photoplethysmography (PPG) and recently has been used as a surrogate for HRV. Several studies have found that PRV is not entirely valid as an estimation of HRV and that several physiological factors, including the pulse transit time (PTT) and blood pressure (BP) changes, may affect PRV differently than HRV. This study aimed to assess the relationship between PRV and HRV under different BP states: hypotension, normotension, and hypertension. Using the MIMIC III database, 5 min segments of PPG and ECG signals were used to extract PRV and HRV, respectively. Several time-domain, frequency-domain, and nonlinear indices were obtained from these signals. Bland–Altman analysis, correlation analysis, and Friedman rank sum tests were used to compare HRV and PRV in each state, and PRV and HRV indices were compared among BP states using Kruskal–Wallis tests. The findings indicated that there were differences between PRV and HRV, especially in short-term and nonlinear indices, and although PRV and HRV were altered in a similar manner when there was a change in BP, PRV seemed to be more sensitive to these changes.

AbstractWe sought to evaluate the utility of radiomics for Amide Proton Transfer weighted (APTw) imaging by assessing its value in differentiating brain metastases from high- and low grade glial brain tumors. We retrospectively identified 48 treatment-naïve patients (10 WHO grade 2, 1 WHO grade 3, 10 WHO grade 4 primary glial brain tumors and 27 metastases) with either primary glial brain tumors or metastases who had undergone APTw MR imaging. After image analysis with radiomics feature extraction and post-processing, machine learning algorithms (multilayer perceptron machine learning algorithm; random forest classifier) with stratified tenfold cross validation were trained on features and were used to differentiate the brain neoplasms. The multilayer perceptron achieved an AUC of 0.836 (receiver operating characteristic curve) in differentiating primary glial brain tumors from metastases. The random forest classifier achieved an AUC of 0.868 in differentiating WHO grade 4 from WHO grade 2/3 primary glial brain tumors. For the differentiation of WHO grade 4 tumors from grade 2/3 tumors and metastases an average AUC of 0.797 was achieved. Our results indicate that the use of radiomics for APTw imaging is feasible and the differentiation of primary glial brain tumors from metastases is achievable with a high degree of accuracy.

Abstract Purpose To evaluate diagnostic accuracy of fully automated analysis of multimodal imaging data using [18F]-FET-PET and MRI (including amide proton transfer-weighted (APTw) imaging and dynamic-susceptibility-contrast (DSC) perfusion) in differentiation of tumor progression from treatment-related changes in patients with glioma. Material and methods At suspected tumor progression, MRI and [18F]-FET-PET data as part of a retrospective analysis of an observational cohort of 66 patients/74 scans (51 glioblastoma and 23 lower-grade-glioma, 8 patients included at two different time points) were automatically segmented into necrosis, FLAIR-hyperintense, and contrast-enhancing areas using an ensemble of deep learning algorithms. In parallel, previous MR exam was processed in a similar way to subtract preexisting tumor areas and focus on progressive tumor only. Within these progressive areas, intensity statistics were automatically extracted from [18F]-FET-PET, APTw, and DSC-derived cerebral-blood-volume (CBV) maps and used to train a Random Forest classifier with threefold cross-validation. To evaluate contribution of the imaging modalities to the classifier’s performance, impurity-based importance measures were collected. Classifier performance was compared with radiology reports and interdisciplinary tumor board assessments. Results In 57/74 cases (77%), tumor progression was confirmed histopathologically (39 cases) or via follow-up imaging (18 cases), while remaining 17 cases were diagnosed as treatment-related changes. The classification accuracy of the Random Forest classifier was 0.86, 95% CI 0.77–0.93 (sensitivity 0.91, 95% CI 0.81–0.97; specificity 0.71, 95% CI 0.44–0.9), significantly above the no-information rate of 0.77 (p = 0.03), and higher compared to an accuracy of 0.82 for MRI (95% CI 0.72–0.9), 0.81 for [18F]-FET-PET (95% CI 0.7–0.89), and 0.81 for expert consensus (95% CI 0.7–0.89), although these differences were not statistically significant (p > 0.1 for all comparisons, McNemar test). [18F]-FET-PET hot-spot volume was single-most important variable, with relevant contribution from all imaging modalities. Conclusion Automated, joint image analysis of [18F]-FET-PET and advanced MR imaging techniques APTw and DSC perfusion is a promising tool for objective response assessment in gliomas.
